ASUS Silent Knight II 92mm Sleeve CPU Cooler

Asus continues to think outside the box – the boxy design of most CPU coolers, that is. Its radical, radial design provides maximum cooling with 128 polished copper ribs arrayed around a 92mm sliding bearing 2,300 RPM fan. PWM control support lets the motherboard BIOS adjust the fan speed according to thermal need resulting in reduced noise when CPU utilization is low.

Six separate, copper heat pipes distribute heat away from the CPU to be dissipated by the airflow running through the core of the cooler. Offering support for the Intel Pentium D Dual-Core CPU as well as Intel Pentium 4 LGA775 and Socket 478 processors, the Silent Knight II also fits AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core and AMD Athlon 64 (-FX) (939/940/AM2) CPUs as well thanks to the selection of included sockets and backplates.

Mounting the cooler is straightforward, and the heatsink sits high above the motherboard to eliminate any conflict with other components. Its 36.5CFM airflow will quickly purge heat from the system. Blue LED highlights accent the smooth copper surfaces of the cooler to add more than a little bling to the interior of your case.

Rating: 3/5yikes

Pros: cooled my AMD Athlon 64 X2 5800+ Brisbane 3.0GHz down 10c useing program {coreTemp32}. core 0 want from 45c to 35c core 1 want from 50c to 40c give or take a deagree or two. no more than that

Cons: mounting hardwear is junk. the clip reminded me of an old p3 clip but cheaper. after i put this together the heatsink wiggled alot. i had to [ut the thick part of a razer blade between the clip and the heatsink just to get it tighter. still wasnt as tight as i wouls of liked.

Other Thoughts: was useing a coolmaster mars heatsink.ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe/Wireless Edition motherboardCORSAIR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 OCZ OCZ700MXSP 700W ATX12V V2.2 powersupplyi dont game or anything so my pc is mostly at idle and i just put it in yesterday so it hasnt had burn in time yet. the cheap clip / mounting takes away the 2 stars im my eyes! newegg still rocks!!!!!!!!

Rating: 4/5Quiet Air Mover

This review is from: ASUS Silent Knight II 92mm Sleeve CPU Cooler

Pros: A real quiet fan. Easy no trouble installation if your board is not in case yet or you are not squeemish about removing mobo. Fan moves plenty of air. I have not had any random restarts due to heat since installation

Rating: 5/5Great Fan

Pros: Clean and shiny, moves air without all the noise. Cool blue LED and works wonders on heat.

Cons: Can be a bit intimidating when you first open the box.

Other Thoughts: It comes with brackets for both amd2+ and 775 cpus. just follow the directions and in 15 min. You'll have it up and running in no time, both require a back plate so be prepared to move that mobo around.

Cons: HUGE. lolHad to take the system completely apart to mount the backplate. No big deal, really.

Other Thoughts: I have an E8600 that was running at stock 3.33 gHz, temps from 45 - 52C.

Once I installed this new heatsink and fan, I overclocked to 4.0 gHz. With this heatsink / fan and the thermal paste that came with it, my temps still dropped to 26 - 34C. 34C DURING CRYSIS. 1920x1080, everything maxxed out (minus AA).

Rating: 5/5Great Heat Sink!

This review is from: ASUS Silent Knight II 92mm Sleeve CPU Cooler

Pros: This heat sink is great! It keeps my processor OCed at 4.0 at only 40C. I have yet to see it rise above 42C at full load. Compared to my stock fan at 52C when it wasn't OCed this fan is awesome. Absolutely love it.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Be sure when overclocking to allow your thermal compound to set in for a while. Overclock a little at a time. XD
